About Import Fees Deposit

With your authorisation, these funds will be used by the carrier or another agent to pay the Import Fees on your behalf (or the recipient's behalf) to the appropriate authorities of the destination country.

The payment of import fees is the responsibility of the importer and is levied based on the laws of the country into which the products are being delivered.

If the actual Import Fees (paid by the carrier on behalf of the recipient to the customs and tax authorities of the destination country) are less than the Import Fees Deposit collected by us on your behalf, you'll automatically be refunded the difference to the payment method you used for the order. You'll receive a notification e-mail to confirm the amount of the refund. The process takes 60 days from the dispatch date.

For items sold by Amazon EU Sarl, you won't be charged any additional fees if the actual Import Fees exceed the Import Fees Deposit we estimated. For items sold by Sellers, please check the applicable Seller's policies.

The Import Fees Deposit is an estimation of the taxes and duties that may apply and is not an actual calculation of the taxes and duties. In addition, customs regulations and tax rates applicable to certain goods may change between the date the taxes and duties were estimated and the applicable taxes and duties on the date of entry. Also, classification of goods in various countries and regions may be different.
